This event will celebrate our rich tradition of excellence and rapid growth in vision science across Vanderbilt schools, institutes, and campuses. The schedule will include platform updates from our faculty, posters from our many talented trainees, and lunch, cocktails and dinner. We are pleased to announce that our platform speaker will be Professor David Williams, PhD, Dean for Science and Director of the Center for Visual Sciences at the University of Rochester.
